Little thing:Would be nice if you could see where the sample is (directory structure) in the Drum Machine SAMPLE/TRACK SETTINGS display mode.I must say I do like the ability to page through the samples in this mode:)

If I play a pattern and decide I like a sound being used how do I locate that sample to use in another pattern - other than saving it to a user sample

I presume the samples are loaded from the \samplepacks directorys - or are they saved with pattern or patternsets.(which leads me to another question)I dont suppose I can rename any of the samples without patterns or soundsets that use sample then losing link to the sample file - other than saving to a user sample.

I agree with you. Having the path in the display would be useful.The problem is the space. A path can be very very long.

There are different ways to achieve that.If you're using G-Stomper Studio, the easiest way is to copy the sample mapping from one pattern to another.1. Long press the T.. from which you want to copy the sample2. Select the COPY tab3. Select "Track (Selective Content)4. Press the "Show Content" button5. Deselect everything except "Sample" and "Sampler Preset Parameters (incl. Mixer)6. Press OK to copy the data to the clipboard7. Go to the pattern set and choose the pattern where you want to paste the sample into8. Back to the drum machine and press the T.. button where you want to paste the sample into

The other way is as followed:1. Select the T.. from which you want to copy the sample2. Show up the Sample display3. Enable the "Lock Folder" button4. Go to (or load) the pattern where you want to use the same sample5. Select the T.. button where you want to use the sample6. In the sample display press once left, then once right again... et voilà

Both is correct.The samples are stored in the patterns if you didn't change the behavior in the settings (Main Screen / SETUP / GEN / Default File Format).Even if the samples are stored in a pattern or set, they'll still be loaded from the folders, if the folders and samples still exist.If you rename the samples or folders or if you delete samples, then the used samples will be loaded from the embedded sample storage of the patterns or sets.So to answer your question... as long as you use the default "embedded" file format, you can do whatever you want with the samples, rename, delete, move, etc. All sound sets, patterns, presets or pattern sets will still work.

WOW ... as you say ... et voilàYES this really helps - also with some other questions I was going to ask about copying parts So no more questions for now ...(I should read the manual more right)... so now even more impressed )

Just a short update...As the samples are always pooled in G-Stomper (this means a sample is always only loaded once into memory, even if used in multiple tracks, patterns or synth presets), you also access the already loaded samples by loading them directly from the pool.

1. On the sample display, just press more or touch the display (this will show up the load tab of the track menu).2. Choose "Currently used Sample" to show up a list of all samples that are used in the current pattern set.3. From that point, you can choose the samples as if you load them from the factory or user samples.

Also, if you load a factory or user sample... if you browse the sample folders using the file browser, the file symbol of samples that are already used in the pattern set is highlighted with grey color. That way you know at any time if a sample is already part of your set or not.
